I didn't know she's a she but she's clearly not well. In the real world, things cost money and she refused to accept the most basic fact that taxes have to go up. CBO says deficits will hit $1 trillion in 2020. In January of this year, CBO said it'd take until 2027 before that happened. It's time for people to put on the big boy pants and start acting like adults (which I don't think is possible anymore). From January: "Growing Deficits Through 2027 Are Projected to Drive Up Federal Debt In CBO’s baseline projections, budget deficits remain below 3.0 percent of GDP through 2019. But subsequently, continued growth in spending—particularly for Social Security, Medicare, and net interest—would outstrip growth in revenues, resulting in larger deficits and increasing debt. By 2027, the deficit would reach 5.0 percent of GDP—$1.4 trillion." Decades of tax cuts and lies about balanced budgets have to end and she needs to help make that happen.
